    Default FW Blog #39: Imperial Fist Contemptor

    Finally my patience is going to be rewarded with goodies for my beloved VIIth Legion. In today's FW Blog entry we get a good look at the upcoming Imperial Fists Contemptor Dreadnought. IT WILL BE MINE!!

    Either there is life in the universe more intelligent than us, or we are the most intelligent form of life in the universe. Either way, it's a worrying thought!

    They all look the same to me...

    Well, there not much to differenciate the Imperial Fist one from the regular venerable contemptor.

    Hmm you do have a point there, seems rather minimal changes to the basic one. Guess I'll just have to chuck some extra gubbin's on it to make it fit in with the regular and relic Contemptor's I've already got. This is my Relic one:

    Reckon I'll get the Missile Launcher bit for this one and have it as a Mortis type.

    Does it have a Raptors symbol on the left knee?

    Still waiting to for the alpha legion contemptor to end up on FW's new stuff page. Not to mention the rhino and land raider doors seen in open day displays, or the mk3 shoulder pads in their new 2014/15 catalogue.

    Chris, that's the original symbol of the Aquila, used by those who were around during The Emperor's romp through the Unification Wars.

    I see it the opposite way. I think the Iron Warriors and Raven Guard ones were trying too hard and looked stupid for it. The wavy streaks of bumps and the sculpted hazard stripes were so daft.
